Hi all! and Happy Holidays!!

We have started a writing contest in the fun and games board. But we have also heard that not everyone looks at the fun and games board, so they don't know it's up. We want everyone on Sleuth to submit an entry. (Yes, i know, it won't happen, but i can dream.) There are a couple of requirements, but the entries are typically FANTASTIC! (You all are amazing writers if no one has told you that lately.) We also extend an invitation to those who have trouble writing in English. (We actually enjoy grammar floops and believe that these entries are just as valid and good as one in the queen's english.) The overriding thing is the CONTENT, not the does and doeses.

So come one, come all. Come submit an entry and make our year!!! If you have any questions about the rules or expectations of the contest, please PM any of the directors of Wish on a Star.

Until then, MORE EGGNOG! ;0) L

Thank you Mr. Smile! I did ask how vampires kick up their heels and am thoroughly relieved that you used Howard and not me for your answer. Your entry even made me smile! So thank you very much! I loved it! L

I love competitions which bring out the creative festive spirit. Where I am, it's already 6th Jan but as per the Sleuth Server there's still time for a last minute entry!

if you're trying to make me feel guilty that i didn't get around to finishing my entry yet, good luck. i hurt too much to care. besides which, mine can't be submitted for judging and prizes. so there'll be one more entry, probably sometime tomorrow. i'm sure you'll handle the anticipation better than i will. have fun!

Hi Everyone!! ;-D

Just in case you didn't hear, we have extended the deadline for the Holiday Writing Contest to 11:59PM Sleuth Server Time TONIGHT (ie., Monday, January 7, 2013), so we could give everyone who had problems with time issues a fair chance to submit something.

Sooo....

Get scribblin'!! ;-D ;-D ;-D

Thank you!! ;-)

After many trials, tribulations and a trip to the hospital, we have the results from our panel of judges. The judges were Rosamund Clifford, Della Devine, Breitkat and Luc Pfeiffer; we want to thank all of them for their patience and work. Now for the results:

First Place: Lawlietime
Second Place: Vampiric Smile
Third Place: Andrew Corelli
Honorable Mention: CrabApple

We will be delivering the prizes via wire transfer from the bank. If any recipient wants an alternate arrangement, please contact Breitkat. Congratulations to all the writers! We were all incredibly impressed with your stories. We hope to hear more from you all and the rest of the Sleuth writers in the future. Thanks very much! Dave
